摘 要: 随着中国进入中等收入国家行列,如何跨越"中等收入陷阱"成为中国经济发展研究的重要命题。为了借鉴他国的发展经验,本研究以20世纪60年代末的中等收入国家为样本,对其1965-1990年间教育对经济增长的贡献进行了实证研究。研究发现只有中等教育对经济增长发生显著的正向作用;而初等教育水平和高等教育水平对经济增长的影响系数虽然都为正,但表现并不显著。这一结果也初步验证了一些研究者从教育投资战略视角对东亚四小龙和拉丁美洲国家的不同经济绩效所提出的解释。本文的研究结果对中国跨越"中等收入陷阱",制定正确的教育投资策略具有一定的启示意义。 With China being one of the middle-income countries,how to overcome the 'middle-income trap'and remain economic growth becomes the most important issue for China.This paper examined the contribution of education to economic growth with the data of middle-income countries from 1965-1990. The results shows that secondary education has significantly positive effects on the economic growth,but the effects of primary education and higher education on economic growth are not significant.The outcome of our research is in consistent with some researches which explain the varied economic performances between the'Four Asia Dragons'and the Latin America countries with education investment strategies.Some policy implication for China's education investment could be aroused based on our research result.
